Story in The Division


Haven't blogged in awhile, but if you follow me on Twitter, then you know I've been pretty much playing Tom Clancy's The Division since it launched. I've finished the main story, reached the max level, and only have a single zone of collectibles left to gather. Now that I'm just sort of doing the daily gear progression thing, I wanted to take a bit and talk about the story of The Division - what I think worked, and what could have been better. I haven't seen a whole lot of commentary on The Division's story, but what I have seen has been mostly negative. And I wanted to talk about that, because I'm not entirely sure the game is getting credit where credit may be due.

Spoiler Warning
Let's get this out of the way right up front - I'm assuming that if you're reading this, you've finished the main story, and have completed all of the story missions. There will be spoilers for that content ahead, so if you're worried about reveals, please come back when you're at the end.
